The klingon word for "socks" is {paSlogh}. Is this word to be treated as being grammatically singular, and is it possible to say "one sock" in klingon ? As far as I know, it is unknown if a singular form exists. qunnoq

info from Maltz: pronunciation

--- begin quote --- TKD glosses {QIch} as “speech (vocal sounds).” The notation “(vocal sounds)” is intended to denote that “speech” here means the phenomenon of speech as opposed to an address or oration – that’s {SoQ}. So {QIch} doesn’t refer to individual speech sounds or speech sounds collectively. An individual speech sound is {QIch wab} and speech sounds collectively are {QIch wabmey}. “Pronunciation” could be {QIch wab Ho’DoS}, more literally (but awkwardly) “speech-sound manner, speech-sound technique.” --- end quote --- -- De'vID

The "bold" and "italics" refer not to Klingon, but to how definitions are displayed in Latin script (Klingon in bold, English translation in italics, like in TKD). --- begin quote --- “Writing system” in general ({pIqaD} is just one of many in the world/galaxy) is {ghItlhmeH Ho’DoS} “system for writing.” ({Ho’DoS} is “system, method, manner, technique.” {pat} is “system” in the physical [or physical-like] sense, as in “computer system” [hardware or hardware and software together] or “transporter system” or “propulsion system.” {Ho’DoS} is not that.) For “font” or “typeface,” you can use {ngutlh tu’qom} “written character appearance/form/shape.” For “bold,” Maltz suggested {pI’} “fat.” For “Italics,” he said {chongHa’} “un-vertical.” --- end quote --- -- De'vID

info from Maltz: audiovisual media
by De'vID 24 Mar '18

24 Mar '18

In answer to how to express "media", "video (visual recording)", and "audio (sound clip)". --- begin quote --- Maltz didn’t think that {much} was quite right for “media,” but he also wasn’t sure what was included in “media” – the phenomena of video/audio/etc. or a physical (or digital) video or audio tape or file. What about print? That is, does “media” mean “the press” (as in “freedom of the press”)? Does it include “newspaper/magazine”? A video (à la YouTube) could be a {HaSta ta} “visual display record.” The audio counterpart could be a {wab ta} “sound record.” --- end quote --- -- De'vID
